That he had become accustomed to the grandfather who was a “guardian.” His parents followed him when he was Bar Mitzvah with his brothers and sisters and settled in Dimona, where he completed his elementary studies and then studied in “Shivrei Avraham” “And was educated in Torah, work and social life, but he was gifted with musical ability and an evening voice, and excelled in sports and physical fitness, and was therefore very suitable for the role of” coach ” Gal was a graduate of the “Aleiya” music academy and had to study for a two-year period. Since April 1967, when he recently visited his home, he proudly told his brother and his little sisters that after he had been in the ditch he would descend and then return home with wings on his chest.

He was brought to rest in the cemetery in Dimona, and the commander of his unit wrote to his family after Eli fell in his role as a letter of condolence, “It is true to say that he was under my command for a short period of time, but it was possible to discern in him the rapid adaptation in the new conditions to their difficulty, because his strong will, his unwillingness to fulfill every task he was assigned to complete – I can add that your son also excelled in a quick grasp and understanding of the things that were required of him … Your son, like those heroic soldiers who fell with him, fulfilled in their blood the work that we will do and will not move from here so that those who come after us will be able to say: ‘Here is peace.’ “The director of the” Aliya “institution eulogized him and emphasized that Eli was drawn to so many good and Yaffa things that delight a young person: to music and to sports, so he loved to delight people in his singing and singing even if he himself was sad. In these words: “We came to you, to me, to share your last honor and perhaps your first honor.” A pamphlet appeared in his memory after they fell.
